Sample Clockwork App (Sinatra/Beanstalk)

Clockwork is a library to replace
cron for scheduling jobs from within an application. This is a sample
application which uses the Sinatra web framework, a MongoDB database, and the
Beanstalk queueing backend to demonstrate Clockwork's use.

The app fetches the Dow Jones index from Google Finance once every three
minutes, and puts the results in the Mongo database. The web app shows the
history of all fetched data points.
